Windows 7 support ends January 14th 2020
#7387
kind of gnarly to think that over a third of all internet traffic globally is still windows 7

i feel the end of support is to try to force people to 10, but evidently its not really working as I haven't seen many windows 10 computers around. I am almost certian they will push out secuirty updates to se7en when needed but it won't be every month.

i mean they still push ultra major patches to xp every so rarely, so of course 7's going to get the same treatment

also, microsoft's had set in stone support cycles like this since 2001 when they dropped everything older than NT4/98. hell, 98 actually got a 2 year extension from 2004 to 2006 due to popularity, and iirc XP was supposed to originally end support in 2010-2011 but got extended to 2014.

i mean, microsoft desperately does not want to sink support into 7, but it would reflect really badly on them if a third of the entire internet got something serious and they just crossed their arms and said to install windows 10 instead of helping to mitigate it.

i mean when micorosft pulled the plug on XP 20 percent of all computers in the world were running it. But if I had to guess they were still updating computers a couple times a years for elevation exploiits, and remote code executions.

Although microsoft still hasnt patched the replace sethc with cmd to exploit the computer and add an administator. This bug is legit 15 years old.

i mean the only patches they did to out of support systems were for vulns that could infect in support systems, so im assuming that rule will still apply too
